世界卫生组织(WHO)的一项调查指出,全球的患者有1/3是死于不合理用药,而不是疾病本身。我国医院的不合理用药情况也相当严重。不合理用药不仅对患者的身体健康构成威胁,同时大大增加了患者费用负担,是直接导致医疗费用过快增长的主要原因之一,成为群众对医疗机构不满意的焦点问题之一。合理用药的概念:是指根据疾病种类、患者状况和药理学理论选择最佳的药物及其制剂,制定或调整给药方案,以期有效、安全、经济地防治和治愈疾病的措施。 A World Health Organization (WHO) survey found that one third of the global patients died of irrational use of medication, not the disease itself. The irrational use of drugs in our hospitals is also quite serious. Unreasonable medication not only poses a threat to the health of patients, but also greatly increases the patient’s cost burden. This is one of the major causes of the rapid growth of medical expenses, which has become one of the key issues that the masses are not satisfied with the medical institutions. The concept of rational drug use refers to the choice of the best drug and its formulation according to the type of disease, the condition of the patient and the theory of pharmacology, and the formulation or adjustment of the dosage regimen in order to effectively, safely and economically prevent and cure the disease.
